Daisy the Labrador is 9 years old today, born 01/02/03, so it seems only right she should feature in the City Daily Photo February theme day of Animals. Her ancestral home of Labrador in Canada has snowy conditions at present, even if Manchester doesn't.
After two extreme winters in 2009-2010 and 2010-2011 this winter's snow has mainly stayed in the hills, not down in the Manchester basin and Cheshire plain. We may get a taste of real winter yet. It was —4°C overnight, and is not expected to get much above freezing during the day. It’s forecast to be —6°C tonight and snow for the weekend but I have my doubts as to how accurate this is...

Labs and kids go together. Great!
ReplyDeleteDaisy has such a wise and knowing look on her face Chrissy, as Jilly says, dogs and kids make an excellent combination. Fun in the snow, great shot!

ReplyDeleteMy family have had 3 Labrador dogs!
They were so kind, and good family members!
We had a labrador called Penny when I was small and then later another called Tuppence. Very patient and tolerent around children, sometimes they need to be. Daisy looks a great dog.
